Chapter 98: Kakuzu: I was with the First Hokage...

'I feel so refreshed, like wearing new underwear on New Year's morning...'

Looking at Tsunade sitting in the position of Hokage, Shinko felt that the air he was breathing was a lot fresher. Even though she was only on duty, Shinko felt that according to the current situation, Sarutobi Hiruzen would let Tsunade succeed as the fifth Hokage within a month.

"Little ghost, your mission record..."

Tsunade felt her eyelids twitching as she read the mission history of Shincod. "Why don't you go to Iwagakure again? It just so happens that the old man is planning to invite Iwagakure to participate in the joint Chunin exam this time."

After seeing that Shinko had beaten Hanzo, beaten the Raikage, and intimidated the Mizukage, Tsunade felt that it was a bit asymmetrical for the Kazekage and the Tsuchikage not to be attacked at the same time, considering Shinko's great achievements in kidnapping her.

However, Tsunade is only a substitute or intern now, and can only arrange her work according to the guidelines and ideas clearly written by her teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen. In Sarutobi Hiruzen's plan, there is only a project to bring in the Iwagakure Village, but no project to bring in the Sandgakure Village.

"Iwagakure Village? That's easy. How much is the reward? Is it one million?"

In fact, Shinko felt that it was a bit too late to recruit people at this juncture when the Joint Chunin Exam was only one month away. There might be some opinions from the Iwagakure Village, but he didn't say much about it.

"One million? Indeed, the reward for this mission is indeed one million." Tsunade was not surprised that Shincod guessed the exact amount of the reward directly. After all, the last time he was asked to go to Kirigakure, the village gave him a reward of one million, but it was directly calculated as two S-level missions in his resume.

"By the way, how did he turn an A-rank mission into an S-rank? Oh, yes, I almost forgot, he went to threaten the Mizukage and fought with the rebel ninjas and demolished the Mizukage building..." Tsunade became more and more speechless. She felt that compared with this inherently evil Uchiha brat in front of her, she was like a rookie more than 20 years ago.

Of course, compared to Zhen Cod, she is also a rookie now.

"Sure, as long as it's not a mission like destroying the Iwagakure Village or taking down the Ōnoki head, I have no problem with that."

"Okay, then it's settled. However, why are you coming to the Hokage Building to accept a mission at this time?" Tsunade glanced at another document, which showed the frequency of Shinko accepting missions. It was a very unreasonable frequency of accepting missions, on average he could not complete one mission per month. And now, Shinko had obviously come again immediately after accepting the mission that contacted her.

"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. I'm planning to get some capital to invest in some projects, but the money I have on hand right now... is not very flexible for a variety of reasons."

"Lack of money? No problem. I recommend you try the gambling house. Maybe you can save enough money in no time."

"Well... to be honest with you, Senior Tsunade, my attitude towards gambling houses is that... if I don't tear them down directly after seeing them, it's all because of my consideration of the social development situation in our Land of Fire."

He has always made money in an honest way and has never been involved in gambling. Of course, he would never use such requirements to restrict others.

"I see, that's really boring, but it seems that you Uchiha don't really like gambling..."

"...Forget it. Just work hard on the mission. It's actually pretty fast to make millions at a time. The key is stability. Of course, I've never been a big fan of stability."

"I'm not actually an Uchiha. I can only say that I'm a descendant of the Uchiha clan. But it doesn't matter." Zhen Cod has basically gotten used to this matter. Now even if someone says that he is from the Uchiha clan, he is too lazy to refute it.

After obtaining the quest scroll, Zhen Cod embarked directly on the journey to Iwagakure Village.

Yes, it's the journey.

Shin Cod drove his little wooden dragon at a rapid speed, and in less than a day he arrived at the border between the Kingdom of Grass and the Kingdom of Taki. As long as he followed this border, he would reach the Kingdom of Earth.

Just when Zhen Cod was about to place a mark and go home to cook, he suddenly sensed a shadow-level unit.

'It's interesting, go and take a look.'

According to Makoto's understanding, there are not many Kage-level units running around in this world. Combined with the geographical location here, Makoto has reason to believe that the person who will appear in his field of vision is the legendary man who failed to assassinate the first Hokage but still survived - the former Takigakure ninja - Kakuzu.

At this time, Kakuzu was happily counting money, unaware of the coming of the 'crisis'.

Suddenly, all the organs in his body, whether original or imported, began to tremble.

The young man stood on a high rock with his arms folded across his chest. His messy yet elegant long hair fluttered in the wind, and his eyes, which could see the world, seemed to take in everything in the universe.

"Every organ in my body is terrified... What's going on? Is this an illusion?" Kakuzu tried to break the illusion, but the result was that Shincod touched his shoulder directly, and he was suddenly awakened by surprise and fear.

Then, he heard the other party say: "Former Takigakure ninja Kakuzu, the man who once assassinated the first Hokage... Tsk tsk, I am still curious about how you survived the first Hokage's hands?"

Shincod knew that the fact that Kakuzu had assassinated the First Hokage was not actually a setting that Kishimoto had come up with on the spur of the moment. In fact, when the serialization of Naruto reached the point where Kakuzu said that he had fought against the First Hokage, the First Hokage had not yet received a "version enhancement". The strongest Hokage at that time was still Sarutobi Hiruzen (although he was dead), so it was actually very reasonable that Kakuzu had tried to assassinate the First Hokage with his strength and was defeated by Wood Release.

"Hmm?" When Kakuzu heard Shinji talk about how he had assassinated the first Hokage, he felt a little proud.

"Have you heard my story?"

"Maybe. Even if I haven't heard it, your eyes seem to be full of stories."

"Is that so? Then I might as well tell you what happened back then..."

Kakuzu truthfully recounted how he was defeated by the First Hokage, which was...

"You couldn't even withstand the opening move of the Tree World Descent?" Shinji thought he already knew why Kakuzu attacked the First Hokage and still survived.

The fundamental reason lies in the character of the first Hokage. He loves peace and is very tolerant towards others. That's why Kakuzu was able to come out of Wood Release intact and not kill. It was not simply because he was kind-hearted, but more because he had the margin of strength to spare.

"Isn't that a very normal thing to do when facing the First Hokage?" Kakuzu asked back.

"This... seems to be true." It is indeed not shameful to be unable to defeat the First Hokage.
